Off to Hollywood..



Yes that's right.. 
 I leave today, but not with Dallas!
Going to move my daughter Katlin to UTAH!
I am going to love this move..she is very crafty and creative and loves to do things with her
 50 year old MOM!

Disney Radio Gig..

Here are some pictures of Dallas doing her thing for Disney Radio, (the night of the Miley Cyrus concert.)
 She did not get to go backstage and meet Miley...(boo h00) but
 the concert was so much fun with all that energy of 7-16 year old girls screaming,singing and dancing.
Dallas doing her "kidcaster" announcing for Comcast Cable.

Carole King


My sister Jeana suggested that I blog about Carole King.  Her hit album in 1971 was Tapestry. I can't really say how I became such a "groupie" of her, but I nearly made my family go crazy with the constant playing, re-playing and re-playing of this particular album.

I would dance and sing for hours in the front room of our home listening to this album on our Motorola Stereo. I got to go to many of her concerts and still love to listen and sing to Carole King.
In case you are or were a FAN of Carole, here are the songs that were on that album:

I Feel the Earth Move
So Far Away
It's Too Late
Home Again
Beautiful
Way Over Yonder
You've Got a Friend
Where You Lead
Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?
Smackwater Jack
Tapestry
(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman

BYU Soccer Camp-Here comes Dallas..




Today is the start of a four day athletic training for Dallas. Brigham Young University is the venue and it will be in the mid to high 90's this week. Dallas has played soccer since she was 4 years old. She is 13 years old and will in in 8th grade. She plays on the Celtic Storm Club team and her position is outside mid and sometimes forward. Her dream is to play for the USC Girls Soccer Team.

I will miss her...but I know exactly what I will be doing for the next four days!   SEWING!!

Proud Parent Moment..

Dallas is in the middle holding the winning Miley Cyrus Concert tickets. The girls on the side of her are Disney Dancers, the kids above are the finalists.


Ok, sorry in advance but I have to brag a little... 
My daughter Dallas auditioned to be a "Kidcaster" for Comcast Cable TV/Disney Radio.
She won and now will be going to the Miley Cyrus concert tonight at the Stadium of Fire right here in little Provo, Utah.
She will be interviewing fans that come to see Miley. It will air on Disney Radio tonight and then will be televised later on Comcast TV.

She is so excited..she won five tickets for the concert!
Congrats to Dallas and have a fun moment of stardom.


Ready Set for the 4th of July




HAPPY 4th of JULY!

I want my neighbors and others that pass by my home to know  I am proud to be an American citizen, so I fly my colors and salute the flag. Here in Provo, Utah we have the Freedom Festival with a whole lot of events to participate in. Provo has had a parade as long as I can remember..(that would be 50 That's how old I am - 6 yrs old, that is when I start to remember the parade.= 44 yrs.)  Utahan's in general are patriotic, since the majority are LDS(mormons)which believe that God preserved this country to be a beacon of freedom and liberty for all who would settle here and worship as they please. 
I am going today to "colonial days" downtown Provo to browse and see some revolutionary memorabilia. 
Dallas will be auditioning for a "Kidcaster" spot on Comcast TV & Radio Disney. Wish her luck!

Down The Lazy River..


Yesterday, a few brave hearts coasted down the Provo River on a raft.
It was most enjoyable, I could have floated for hours..
